and it's because chris christie didn't like the tone he took in an e-mail? in the e-mails that were released by the legislature, the day before governor christie fired him, bill stepien does turn up in those e-mails calling the mayor of ft. lee "an idiot." mr. stepien is looped in on other communication. he turns up here and there as being consulted on media strategy, dealing with the fallout from the bridge. there's really nothing in the documents released by the legislature that makes bill stepien seem like he was a prime mover in the bridge scandal. but governor christie fired him and fired him straight away saying the tone bill stepien took in the documents was so terribly offensive it would not allow governor christie to allow him to keep his job and his career. if we're going by what was in those documents, then we're supposed to believe governor christie was so offended by mr. stepien's use of the word idiot that that's why he had to be fired. >> let me tell you something. after you graduate from law school, you conduct yourself like that in a courtro
